Local Chapter
Welcome to the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) Chapter. We are a group of passionate volunteers who, since January 2021, have been building the GTA Chapter of Dying With Dignity Canada (DWDC). As interest grows to protect end-of-life rights, we are focusing our energies on expanding services and support to the GTA. Through advocacy and public education, the GTA Chapter will work to make residents in the Toronto area aware of their rights to access quality end-of-life choice and care. Our geographical boundaries include Metropolitan Toronto, Mississauga, York Region and Oshawa/Pickering.
This Advance Care Planning month, join the Greater Toronto Area Chapter of Dying With Dignity Canada for a presentation by Dr. Blair Bigham, author of “Death Interrupted.
The GTA Chapter of Dying With Dignity Canada (DWDC) offers two FREE information sessions, for people of all ages, on the topics of Advance Care Planning and medical assistance in dying.
